Before you start

Laundry guidelines

Checkpoints

• Check for stains or dirt. Apply a little detergent to a white towel. Rub the white towel and

the dirty clothes together to transfer the dirt or color to the white towel.

• Before washing, pre-treat the sleeves, collars, dress hems, and pockets by brushing with

detergent.

• Wrinkle-processed clothes made of wool must be specially treated by tightening them

with threads before washing. Remove the threads after washing and drying is complete.

CAUTION

• Do not place or keep blankets in the tub.

• Do not put candles or a heat source in or on the washing machine.

• Do not wash these clothes:

• Neckties, brassieres, jackets, suits, and coats can be easily deformed by shrinking or

discoloring on the surface. These clothes are mostly made of rayon, polynosic, cuff,

and/or blended fabric.

• Wrinkle-processed, embossed, or resin processed clothes easily deform merely by

soaking in water.

• Clothes that are easily discolored made from cotton, wool, wrinkled silk, leather wear

and accessories, and leather ornamented clothes and accessories.

• Waterproof sheets, mattresses, or wool quilts, rain covers, shing jackets and trousers,

skiwear, sleeping bags, diaper covers, sweat suits, vehicle covers for automobiles,

bicycles, and motorcycles, bath rugs, and other waterproof items.

WA750L_DC68-04048D-00_EN.indd 17 2020-12-09  5:04:46

18 English

Before you start

STEP 1 Sort

Sort the laundry according to these criteria:

• Care Label: Sort the laundry into cottons, mixed bres, synthetics, silks, wools, and rayon.

• Color: Separate whites from colors.

• Size: Mixing different-sized items together in the tub improves the washing performance.

• Sensitivity: Follow the cloth-specic instructions on the care label of delicate items such

as pure, new woollen items, curtains, and silk items.

NOTE

Make sure to check the care label on the clothing, and sort them accordingly before starting

the wash.

STEP 2 Empty pockets

Empty all the pockets of your laundry items, and remove dirt and/or soils from them.

• Metal objects such as coins, pins, and buckles on clothing may damage other laundry

items as well as the tub.

• Turn clothing with buttons and embroideries inside out.

• If pants or jacket zippers are open while washing, the tub may be damaged.

• Zippers should be closed and xed with a string.

• Clothing with long strings may become entangled with other clothes. Make sure to tie the

strings before washing.

STEP 3 Use a laundry net or wash certain items separately

• Brassieres (water washable) must be placed in a laundry net. Metal parts of the brassieres

may break through and tear other laundry items.

• Cashmilon, large volume garments, and lightweight clothes (lace-decorated clothes,

lingerie, nylon stocking, and synthetic fabrics) may oat on water during washing and

cause problems to the machine. Use the laundry net or wash them separately.

• Do not wash the laundry net by itself without other laundry. This may cause abnormal

vibrations that could move the washing machine and result in injury.

WA750L_DC68-04048D-00_EN.indd 18 2020-12-09  5:04:46

English 19

Before you start

CAUTION

Make sure to soak inatable items (such as blankets, and cotton-lled or microbre quilets) in

water before you run a cycle.

• Inatable items may cause damage to the laundry or the machine during the wash or

drying process.

• Regardless of the size, blankets or quilts are safer and cleaner to wash one item at a time.

Two different-sized blankets in the same load may compromise the drying performance

due to unbalanced loads.

To input a blanket

Fold the blanket as shown, and then put it on the plastic area (A) of the tub before inserting

into the tub.

A

STEP 4 Prewash (if necessary)

• To remove stains and dirt on collars, sleeves, hems, and pockets, apply detergent lightly

and brush off.

• Use powder or liquid detergents. Do not use soap, as this may remain on the tub after

washing.

• Prewash white socks, sleeves, and collars with a little detergent and a brush.

CAUTION

Make sure the laundry is inserted completely.

• Any exposed part of the laundry may cause damage to the machine or the laundry itself,

or a water leak.

• Make sure the laundry does not exceed the plastic area (A) in the above gure.

WA750L_DC68-04048D-00_EN.indd 19 2020-12-09  5:04:46

20 English

Before you start

STEP 5 Determine the load capacity

Make sure the laundry does not exceed the plastic area (A) in the gure on page 19.

Otherwise, it may cause the washing machine to not wash properly or cause damage to the

machine or the laundry itself, or a water leak.

NOTE

When washing bedding or bedding covers, the wash time may be lengthened or the spin

efciency may be reduced. For bedding or bedding covers, the recommended load capacity is

3.5kg or less.

CAUTION

If the laundry is unbalanced and the “Ub” information code is displayed, redistribute the load.

Unbalanced laundry may reduce the spinning performance and cause damage to the machine

or the laundry itself.

STEP 6 Apply a proper detergent type

The type of detergent depends on the type of fabric (cotton, synthetic, delicate items, wool),

color, wash temperature, and degree of soiling. Always use “low suds” laundry detergent,

which is designed for automatic washing machines.

CAUTION

• Use an appropriate amount of detergent. Excess amounts of detergent do not produce

much improvement in washing results but cause damage to the laundry due to

deteriorated rinsing performance.

• Bleach is strong alkali in nature, causing damage to or discoloration of the laundry.

• Use a longer or added rinse cycle when using powder detergent that is very likely to

remain on the laundry and cause bad odors after washing is complete.

• If an excessive amount of detergent is used especially in cold water, the detergent doesn’t

dissolve well, ending up with contaminated laundry, hoses, and/or tub.

• In case of timed washing, do not apply detergent directly to laundry or the tub. The

laundry may be discolored. Use the detergent drawer.

• When washing wool using the Wool cycle, use only a neutral detergent to avoid

discoloring the laundry.

NOTE

• Follow the detergent manufacturer’s recommendations based on the weight of the

laundry, the degree of soiling, and the hardness of the water in your local area. If you are

not sure about the water hardness, contact a local water authority.

• Do not use detergent that tends to be hardened or solidied. This detergent may remain

after the rinse process, blocking the drain outlet.
